In the past few days, I've noticed if I tick emails in the Junk folder to "Report Phishing", they no longer go to the deleted folder. They disappear momentarily and I get the "nothing in junk icon, etc. but, if I go to the inbox and back to the Junk folder, those emails are still there in the Junk folder.

    What is this rubbish about unsubscribing, who in their right mind would click the unsubscribe button on a phish email (and let them know they have a valid email address).

    They should just block them, and should not even deal with any emails that are scam/phish, or sent from an obvious false email whether that is the actual senders email or the one that shows on the email i.e. ljhdseofcyrewc at iouhfbvoufbvdfb dot com.

    They have been working on it, but seems like they aren't getting very far.

    I see that they have changed the pop-up. Still behaving the same way though.

    I am having the same issue, and tried to do all the solutions Saurabh suggested. Nothing worked, still having this issue.

    Just had my first phishing email in over a week. Same problem occurs when trying to report as phishing but stays in the junk folder.

    Have reported direct to Microsoft via Outlook for desktop but no reply yet.

    I am having the same problem, also noticed a similar problem when using outlook on my Samsung phone but with slightly different outcome.
    If I report an email as a phish on the phone it is moved to deleted (but on my PC it is still in the inbox), if I delete it, it will go to the recovery directory and also get deleted from my PC, however if I do anything else (ie select another folder) it returns to the inbox.

    So it must be a Microsoft problem and as someone has also written I don't think it actually gets reported.
